@mur2501 Well you are always more than welcome here. Luckily you dont **have** to use the remote timeline feature :)

@iankenway What a shame. I'm stuck wondering if Brexit will be a savior for them or doom them.. On the one hand the temporary economic chaos might doom them as you imply. But due to a restriction of movement of parts and repair across borders it may actually be their savior and show a revival of the industry.. I'll be curious to see how that plays out.

# Remote Timelines

I wanted to take a minute to explain QOTOs Remote timeline feature, specifically the new aspect we just released on the advanced interface: Domain Favourites.

This feature allows you to pull up a column which is identical to the local timeline of a remote instance, thus addressing the need for users to have multiple accounts across multiple instances. You can be here on QOTO and see the remote timeline as a separate feed just as if you were on the remote instance itself! For example attached to this post is what the Koyu.space remote timeline looks like from QOTO.org.

**Note:** This feature can not and does not bypass security permissions. If a user has blocked you you wont see that users posts in the remote timeline either.

There are several ways to pull up or switch between remote timelines, and you can have several remote timelines up at the same time or even combine them in a single column.

One way to do this is with the QOTO lists feature. Here you can create lists that are either collections of people you wish to follow in their own timeline, or a list of domains where you wish to follow the remote local timeline of the whole domain. Create the lists you want then open your lists and switch between them to view the various timelines you define.

You can also go into your settings and under preferences there is a subsection called "Favourite domains", you can add domains there as well. If you do this the domain will show up on the main navigation bar and you can select it with fewer clicks than through the list menu. There is also a Favourite Tags section in preferences that works much the same way.

You can also pull up the remote local timeline of an instance from a posted status itself. Simply click the three dots on a post from any user from the desired domain and one of the options will be to open the remote timeline for that domain.

That is all there is to it, enjoy!

A picture of a Radio Shack circa 1950. Its a shame self-repair is virtually non existent and shops like this and radio shack themselves, are quickly disappearing. I remember when I was younger you could go there and any electronics part you could imagine. Now they cant even give away what little inventory they have.

@lupyuen Man I miss Kinder since being in the USA.. They make amazing ice cream sandwiches aimed at kids.

@vu3rdd This is the first I'm hearing of it, awesome.

Right after I finish up my own HAM project ( https://www.reddit.com/r/electronics/comments/am5jut/prototype_board_for_smd_smt_in_action_details_in/ ) I might take on this one for fun! Glad you let me know about it.

@GotoTom Feel free to write whatever articles you wish.

@GotoTom That is fine, but you do **need** to respond t the message I sent you about this being a STEM server. I am the founder/administrator of this server and while your most welcome to believe whatever nonsense you wish about Fox news we do have strict rules here about our members being in STEM, so I do need to verify you are in STEM since I see nothing to indicate you are right now.

@GotoTom How about instead of spending all your time insulting others you try actually putting that time into expressing your case.

Can you even name something I said that was incorrect about something you asserted in a blog article?

@valleyforge I tend to get a few dozen votes on my polls even with 15K+ users most of the time. If i do a really interesting poll i sometimes get lucky and get a few hundred, but thats rare.

@GotoTom Really, now your going to accuse me of being a liar? It takes me a few minutes to read an entire book, your blog articles werent that long to be honest.

@GotoTom You are welcome to make whatever wrong assumptions about me you wish.

@GotoTom That is an assumption you made on your part. I read every link you sent me, I did not however watch all the videos in those links, I do not have the time to sit through that much video (thankfully I'm a fast reader).

@GotoTom Tucker Carlson is a clown, but linking me to some random thing Fox aired isnt really going to make your point.

@GotoTom Well clearly we do disagree.. but you have made 0 effort to explain your point at all. You have literally not said even a single thing to explain why to justify how you feel Fox is "real news", but your welcome to disagree and walk away without explaining yourself, there is no obligation.

@GotoTom Again what does google spying on people have to do with what we are discussing?

@GotoTom What does a link to google blacklisting have to do with our discussion?

@GotoTom Your response makes no sense to me...

> I used to think like you, then the evidence was too strong against Google and CNN,

What does the evidence against CNN have to do with anything. Obviously in my OP I already point out that I feel CNN is very poor quality news. We arent even disagreeing about CNN or how bad they may or may not be...

I asserted that **fox** was inaccurate and poorly done news. so any assertions you might make about CNN even if we agree how bad CNN does has absolutely no bearing on Fox news...

Thats like me saying "Did you know bob is a bad person"... and you responding "No he isnt, clearly bob isnt a bad person because fred is a bad person"
